我身邊沒有盲撐警察的人，卻有不少人會這樣說：
「警察係有野唔岩，#但係 示威者都乜乜乜」
其實這個 // #但係 //
會否忽略了A和B的程度有多麼不對等？
忽略了雞蛋與高牆的懸殊？
得到政府批准的遊行，都會被兩面夾攻煙霧彈？
還未有任何起訴理由，就用私家車帶走女示威者，亦不透露會去哪裡？
記者會上警察的回應就像跌落地執返咋沙，聽後令人發笑
我感到痛苦的，除了是示威者受傷
市民無論男女老幼，有否去遊行都因警察而無辜食彈
更痛的是有些人仍未發現問題的根源
仍在指責「搞事」的人，卻不問責荒謬的政府
仍在覺得沒有示威就會太平，卻沒有發現警察濫權到一個怎樣可怕的地步
我能連結到去傷者的心，卻同理不到仍在指責示威者的你
為什麼？為什麼？
是因爲我太自我
還是因為你已失去了那能讓我們連結的甚麼？

暴力是...
Violence is…
警察集會，政府默許。
Police rallies, the government allowed.
其他公務員集會，政府表明追究。
Other civil servants’ gatherings, the government declared they would pursue responsibility.

撐警人士把多面國旗棄於垃圾桶內，政府沒有遣責。
Pro-police individuals tossed the PRC national flags in the garbage bins, the government did not condemn.
示威者把一面國旗丟入海中，政府說挑戰中央權威。
One protestor threw a PRC national flag into the sea, the government said it was a challenge of the authority of the Chinese government.
白衣人手持木棍在警察身邊走過，沒事發生。
White-shirt people holding batons walked past police, nothing happened.
黑衣市民在示威地點路過，警員指他有伸縮長矛。
A black-shirt civilian passed by protesting sites, police accused him of having an extendable machete.
白衣暴徒被捕，可以保釋，亦未被正式起訴。
White-shirt mob got arrested, allowed bail and yet to be charged.
示威人士被捕，不准保釋，短時間內被送上法庭。

這種選擇性的遣責/執法合理嗎？
Is such selective condemnation and execution of the law reasonable?
我不會跟你說，示威者因為有崇高理想，即使違法也是正確。那不是法治。
I won’t tell you, it is fine for the protestors to break the law because they have a noble cause. This is not the rule of law.
同樣地，你跟我說，警察因為維持治安，即使違法也是正確。我一樣不認同。那一樣不是法治。
Similarly, if you tell me it is fine for the police to break the law because they are trying to maintain order, I won’t agree it either. This is not the rule of law.
法治是示威者/警察/黑社會/市民/高官懷疑犯法後都同樣得到公正裁決，都受到法律制裁。那就是法治。
Rule of law is everyone (protestors, police, gang members, civilians and high ranking officials) receives the same fair judicial process when they are suspects for breaking the law. This is the rule of law.
當政府不是一視同仁地對待社會上每一個人，選擇性起訴部分人，但卻對另一部份人的違法行為視而不見，那就不是法治，而是打著法治旗號的人治。
When the government is not treating everyone in the society equally, but selectively and arbitrarily prosecuted certain people, and turned a blind eye to others’ illegal actions, that is not the rule of law, but the rule of men disguised as rule of law.

Authority treating dissent with indifference, that’s the biggest violence.
